Wedding Dreams vs. Budget Reality | Calgary News
Description
Wedding dreams come with a serious price tag—69% of couples overspent, ballooning budgets from $15K to $25K or more. Families, credit cards, and even lines of credit are being tapped to make it happen. Money stress is tearing at relationships, with 30% citing tension with loved ones—and guests are feeling the squeeze too, declining invites or going into debt just to attend. As traditions evolve, many Canadians now prefer cash for a house down payment over wedding gifts, shifting focus from fairy-tale trappings to real-world security. Love and finances? It’s a balancing act reshaping how we celebrate forever.
